PrepTest 68, Section 2, Question 19

Passage
Game

Research into artificial intelligence will fail to produce truly intelligent machines unless the focus of the discipline is radically changed. Progress has been made in creating devices of tremendous computational sophistication, but the present focus on computational ability to the exclusion of other abilities will produce devices only as capable of displaying true intelligence as a human being would be who was completely devoid of emotional and other noncognitive responses.

Question
19

Which one of the following most accurately expresses the main conclusion argued for above?

The current focus of research into artificial intelligence will produce devices no more capable of displaying true intelligence than a person would be who lacked emotions and other noncognitive responses.

If the current focus of research into artificial intelligence is not radically changed, this research will not be able to produce machines capable of true intelligence.

Despite progress in creating machines of great computational sophistication, current research into artificial intelligence has failed to fulfill its objectives.

The capacity to express noncognitive responses such as emotion is at least as important for true intelligence as is computational sophistication.

If a machine is not capable of producing humanlike noncognitive responses, then it cannot be regarded as truly intelligent.
